The screen and keyboard slide out to provide quick access to all systems when working in the server room. All models also facilitate either remote or global access for authorised users who are away from the server room. All KVM links to servers are made using Adder Computer Access Modules (CAMs) that attach to the rack drawer rear panel via standard CATx cables. These make installation straightforward while ensuring that all cabling remains neat and uncluttered. Certain sections of this manual refer to other Adder user guides for details about the KVM module fitted within your rack drawer. These other guides are stored on the CD-ROM supplied with your rack drawer and are also available on the Adder website. Introduction Options port Used for firmware upgrades.

Part number: CATX-PS2 Computer Access Modules One required per connected computer. There are four different formats, depending on the required computer connections: AdderView RDX Rack Drawer assembly Standard items 6 x M6 cage nuts 3 Installation 3 Insert the rack drawer assembly into the mounting brackets. Mounting the rack drawer 1 Determine the appropriate position for the rack drawer within your rack frame. Insert two of the supplied cage nuts in each of the rear vertical rack rails and one cage nut in the lower position of each front rack rail. 2 Attach the supplied left and right mounting brackets to the positions in your rack frame where the cage nuts are located and adjust the bracket depths to suit the depth of the rack. For each mounting bracket: • Use two M6 screws and cup washers to fix the bracket to the rear rack rail. • Use one M6 screw and cup washer (only in the lower hole of the bracket) to fix the bracket to the front rack rail. Leave all screws loose until the rack drawer assembly has been put into place. 4 Pull and hold the left and right black arrow buttons on the rails. 5 Return the LCD keyboard drawer to park position. 6 Use the remaining two M6 screws and cup washers to fix the front mounting ears of the rack drawer assembly to rack rails. The unit is heavy. Therefore when installing, place the rack drawer on a sturdy, level surface to prevent it from accidentally falling and causing damage to other equipment or injury to persons nearby. • It is very important to locate the AdderView RDX Rack Drawer in a suitable environment. • The surface for placing and fixing the rack drawer should be stable and level, or mounted into a suitable cabinet. • Make sure the place has good ventilation, is out of direct sunlight, away from sources of excessive dust, dirt, heat, water, moisture and vibration. • Position the rack drawer with respect to related facilities. Suitable mounting locations 7 Tighten all eight M6 screws to complete the installation. 4 Connecting the rack drawer All server, network and power connections are located at the rear of the unit. • An ethernet network link, labelled or , • A remote extender link (to attach an Adder X200), labelled port is NOT a network port. KVM only . Note: This To connect the external link 1 Wherever possible, ensure that power is disconnected from the rack drawer. 2 Connect a CAT 5, 5e or 6 link cable to the port labelled EXT: There are sixteen RJ-45 sockets labelled as COMPUTER CONNECTIONS on the rear panel. Each socket supports a CAT 5, 5e or 6 link to an individual server system. Note: The maximum length of the CAM cable can be up to 10 metres (32 feet). For models RD1716, and RD1916, also ensure that the overall distance between a remote user (connected to a remote extender) and any CAM unit/server does not exceed 300 metres (980 feet). 1 Wherever possible, ensure that power is disconnected from the rack drawer. 2 Connect a CAT 5, 5e or 6 link cable to one of the COMPUTER CONNECTIONS ports: 8 7 6 The single RJ-45 socket labelled as EXT is used to allow either global or remote users to login and control connected servers. The EXT port provides one of the following links (dependant on the model of rack drawer): Computer access module links The EXTernal link (network or remote user) 5 CO MP 3 UT ER EX T CO NN 2 EC T ION S 1 Link cable to a Computer Access Module 4 • If the EXT port label shows switch/router. • If the EXT port label shows X200 unit. connect the link cable to a network KVM only connect the link cable to an Adder 3 Connect the other end of the cable as follows: 3 Connect the other end of the cable to the Computer Access Module (CAM) that is linked to the required server system. For more information about connecting CAMs, please refer to the appropriate Adder user guide as appropriate to the rack drawer model being used: • RDxx16yy ---> use AdderView CATx 1000 user guide, • RDxx16IPyy ---> use AdderView CATxIP 1000 user guide, • RDxx16QIPyy ---> use AdderView CATxIP 5000 user guide. Link cable from either a network connection or a remote extender where:xx is either 17 or 19, denoting the LCD screen size yy is the country code, e.g. UK, US, etc. 4 Repeat steps 2 and 3 for each server system. 5 Connecting the power adapter to the rear panel power socket. 1 2 ON 2 Connect the IEC connector of the supplied country-specific power lead to the socket of the power adapter. 3 Connect the power cord to a nearby power outlet. Note: Both the rack drawer and the power adapter generate heat when in operation and will become warm to the touch. Do not enclose them or place them in locations where air cannot circulate to cool the equipment. Do not operate the equipment in ambient temperatures exceeding 35oC. Do not place the products in contact with equipment whose surface temperature exceeds 35oC. Disconnecting the power adapter. 12 V 5A To disconnect the power adapter When removing the power connection be aware that the plug has a locking mechanism to prevent accidental disconnects. To remove, pull back the flat top segment of the plug body to disengage the lock and gently pull the whole plug from the power socket: To connect the power adapter 1 Attach the output lead from the power adapter to the 12V socket on the rear panel of the rack drawer: The rack drawer is provided with a power adapter capable of supplying the display monitor, keyboard and in-built KVM module. IMPORTANT: You must only use the manufacturer approved power adapter with the rack drawer. IMPORTANT: Due to the length of the power cable, if the rack drawer is mounted high in the rack it may not be possible to place the power adapter at floor level. In this case it is important to mount it securely and in such a manner that it is not suspended from its output cable.
